Comedian Park Na Rae and actor Sung Hoon have found themselves embroiled in malicious online rumors.
There were previously unsubstantiated rumors online that sexual content of the two existed. The two agencies for both parties responded swiftly, saying that they would be responding strongly to the malicious rumors.
Korean netizens on an online community shared their thoughts on the controversy.
"If both of them were able to sue, I really hope that they will be properly punished."
"In the past, they made a lot of rumors about female celebrities like that. Isn’t the repertoire changing?"
"These rumors really make me want to gag, but ordinary people (friends) usually just go 'oh wow, really?' and they don't have any interest in fact checking...."
"I thought it was a simple dating rumor, but it seems like it's not. I shouldn't bother looking for it."
"Even in 2023, there are rumors like this... Why don't people have the ability to learn?"
"I looked it up because I was wondering what kind of rumor it was... and the person who spread the rumor was really insane."
"I doubt the intelligence of those who believe this."
"I didn't even know there was a rumor, but I really don't understand people who write novels."
Narae is really a nice person and friendly to everyone. People are vicious to her for no reason.
